Describe the pathophysiology, signs and symptoms, diagnostic procedures, treatment, and nursing care of various type of congenital heart disease.
Rationale for assignment:
The students struggle to understand the congenital heart defects. I have done the lecture on congenital heart defects six times now, when the students are in class about 40% begin to understand the different defects. On the examination that evaluated students learning – the student’s scores on this portion of the test range 60-70%. As an instructor, I do not think this is an acceptable level of comprehension. I realize, I will never have 100% but I am aiming to increase comprehension / learning to 85%.
Instructions students will need to use technology:
View each web site. The web sites explain each defect in a little different way. Focus on the web site that you understand the best.
After viewing the web site complete the Wiki worksheet on cardiac defects. You will need to cut and paste a picture of each of the defects into your worksheet.
Bring your completed worksheet to class on Wednesday.
You will be placed into a group:
Each group will present on one of the four defects
Each group will have 15 minutes to prepare their presentation
Brief description of content students will need to accomplish assignment (textbook, websites, lectures, videos, resources):
